Beet & Berries Juice
I mentioned in my weekend recap that I was craving beets last weekend. Of course, I had to look up what nutrients are in beets – what health benefit do they have that I am lacking to give me such a craving? Well, that smart body of mine must have known that beets help detox your […]

Blueberry Muffin Protein Smoothie
A few days ago, I posted a picture of this smoothie on Instagram – if you follow me, you probably noticed how damn excited I was. This was an accidental creation that I am super proud of. It was one of those mornings when I was running really late and wanted to make a fast smoothie […]

Chocolate Chai Protein Shake
Got a quick fantastic drink for you today! I have been working on my own healthier vegan version of a Wendy’s frosty — this is not that recipe, it still needs to be perfected — but I’ve been going through some chocolate almond milk ice cubes in those recipe trials. I’m also adding them to […]

100 Calorie Matcha Coconut Slushie
Happy July 1st, folks! I planned to do my final recap of my June Salad-a-Day Challenge today and post a salad recipe. But I got home hot and thirsty and in need of a pre-dinner snack, so I whipped up this smoothie (the third day in a row I’ve made it) and decided the hot […]

Papaya Lime Banana Smoothie
Time for the spring and summer smoothies to start coming back! This weekend was an amazing moment of summer – I fit in a bike ride, kayak trip, outdoor dive bar, and a couple little walks. And a splotchy ridiculous sunburn (stupid spray-on sunscreen!), dehydration, and overall forgetting how to prepare for such fun activities.

Strawberry Basil Lemonade Spritzer
Happy Saturday, folks! I had a fantastic spring day wine tasting in Napa with a wonderful friend of mine. I made a nice light sparkly (and hydrating) spring drink for us to sip along the way: a strawberry basil lemonade spritzer. I thought it would be a great way to start a day before wine […]

Kiwi Melon Margarita
Getting excited for St. Patty’s Day?! Well, I’m not. Okay, I’m (kind of) kidding. St. Patrick’s Day will be a fun day filled with friends, food, drinks – and my half marathon!!! Yikes. I had absolutely planned on posting regularly about my half-marathon training. Which I’ve pretty much done – I mentioned my 10 mile […]
